Definitions
- the invention relates to a telescopic sight for in particular hand-held firearms.
- the target point in accordance with the meeting point can be brought is in the known riflescopes the target generally in the focal plane of the Lens and the eyepiece arranged, opposite the main tube the rifle scope movably mounted and with two Adjusting spindles arranged perpendicular to each other (see DE 32 08 814 C2).
- the riflescope adjusted, they fall due to the trajectory the target point and meeting point of the floor only together at the distance the rifle was shot at is. At a shorter distance than the bullet distance on the other hand, the meeting point is above the target point and with a larger one below.
- the hunter or other user mostly knows in the ballistic is sufficient for practice Performance of the weapon and the projectile used and thus the size of the deviation between the meeting point and the destination depending on the size of the deviation of the actual Shot distance from the shooting range. It prepares, however, especially in strange, unfamiliar terrain often significant difficulties, the actual distance to estimate the target with sufficient accuracy. estimation error by more than twice are not uncommon.
- Laser rangefinders are based on the principle of time-of-flight measurement a laser pulse or a laser pulse sequence, which is emitted by the laser transmitter.
- the laser pulse or the pulse train is reflected by the targeted target. Part of this reflected light hits the laser receiver.
- the resulting reception signal ends the Transit time measurement. Half that time divided by the constant speed of light gives the distance of the target.
- the laser rangefinders used today have separate for the laser transmitter and the laser receiver Beam paths with separate lenses. You are therefore voluminous and heavy. It is also impractical to set the goal Having to aim at the shot twice, namely once with the target of the laser rangefinder to get the To determine shooting distance, and then with the target of the rifle scope.
- the object of the invention is therefore to use a riflescope integrated laser rangefinder.
- the rifle scope objective by introducing the beam path of the laser transmitter and the beam path of the laser receiver in the visual rifle scope beam at the same time the lens forms for the laser transmitter and the laser receiver, and that the device for adjusting the target to the meeting point an optical part that can be moved relative to the weapon between the target and the light entry side of the Riflescope has.
- the beam path of the laser transmitter and the beam path of the laser receiver in the visual Beam path of the telescopic sight introduced. So that poses the rifle scope objective is also the objective for the laser transmitter and the laser receiver. This is a compact, weight-saving integration of the laser rangefinder realizable in the scope.
- the line of sight of the riflescope and the optical axis of the integrated laser rangefinder must be accurate coincide so the laser rangefinder the distance to the sighted with the target of the riflescope Target and not to an object adjacent to the target measures.
- the beam path is introduced of the laser transmitter and the laser receiver in the Optical path of the telescopic sight between the lens and the target of the rifle scope. That is, when adjusting the Target at the meeting point when shooting the rifle would be done by moving the target, as in the known riflescopes, this would only be the line of sight adjusted to the target point, but not the optical one Axis of the laser rangefinder, so that the laser rangefinder not the distance to the target Measure the target but to a neighboring object would.

- the optical display can emit light in the long wave Visible light range, e.g. B. of more than Send out 0.65 ⁇ m and the reflection surface in the visual Riflescope beam path to mirror the optical display have a coating that is a light this Longitudinal wave, i.e. reflected by 0.65 ⁇ m and more, visible Light with a longitudinal wave underneath, so a longitudinal wave of less than 0.65 ⁇ m but lets through.
- the optical distance indicator can be used in the visual telescopic beam path also with one for visible Reflected light partially transparent reflection surface be, the optical display then also a light with a wavelength of the entire visible range, so z.
